I got calls from this number 01617381970 about 6 times today. Different voices each time, said something about AAG or some legal stuff linked to PPI claims. I just ended the call as soon as they started talking. Pretty annoying!

Make sure you block the number and report it to 7726. Also, write to your MP with a couple of questions: why can't we report scam calls directly through the police's 'Action Fraud' system anymore? And why hasn't the phone industry rolled out Caller ID Authentication to cut down on these scam calls? For scam texts, forward them to 7726. If you get scam emails or have screenshots of scam texts, send them to the police at '[email protected]' so they can look into it properly.

I just got a call from 01617381970 - sounded like one of those scam calls trying to trick you into giving your bank info for some fake "tax refund." Honestly, HMRC wouldn’t use dodgy phone calls like that, they handle that stuff properly themselves. Always be careful, folks!

Got a call from some idiot claiming I was owed a PPI tax refund by HMRC. When I told him I wasn’t interested, he got all rude. I just told him to jog on and ended the call.

I received a call regarding a tax refund, the first one on the 5th of June this year and then again at 8:30am the following day. Best to just block the number altogether.

I received a phone call purporting to be from "ACCS Legal and Tax." The caller addressed me by name and proceeded to inform me about some supposedly great news regarding a tax refund linked to a PPI claim. When I explained that I'd never taken out any PPI, they abruptly ended the call. It's obvious this was a scam attempt.

I got a call from these people today, saying they were from HMRC about PPI. They had loads of my details already, which freaked me out because I have no idea where they got them from! Definitely a con. I’ve blocked their number now.

My mobile phone protector marked this number as a potential fraud. The caller had the cheek to address me by my first name and insisted I confirm it, then went on to ask for my last name. I didn’t entertain it for long and ended the call.

Got two calls today about a PPI claim I supposedly made about five years ago. They said HMRC wrongly deducted tax and now, due to some new law changes, they could reclaim it without charging me tax this time. The caller even had my full name, email and date of birth. I told them I was tied up and would ring back, but I had no plan to do so. How on earth do they have all this personal info? Someone's definitely leaking it. Don’t fall for this, it’s a total scam!

Today the phone went off five times, every caller asking after me, but I kept telling them I wasn’t in. On the fifth ring my husband got fed up and asked what was going on. The caller said it was about a PPI tax refund. My husband told them to quit phoning us, but they just kept pushing, saying I wasn’t interested in the rebate. Honestly, it’s driving me mad. I’m about to turn the phone off for good!
